DIY Festival
Local is the word these days, from local foods to local sports partners, why not host a local music festival of your own? It can seem incredibly daunting if you think only of the end product. What you need to do is break it down into manageable steps and get on with it. The first thing that you need to do is find a venue. Choose some place that wants to host the event and will be accommodating. It should be well placed within your community and have some sort of following of people that regularly frequent it. The best options are a community centre, church hall, a pub with a large function room as well as an outdoor space would be good too. You want some place that would work in both good and not so good weather. Next you need to book some acts and some vendors. Start by putting the word out among your own network, post on on-line forums and message boards and circulate a call for participants among facebook groups.Decide if you are going to try to make some money or just try to break even. This will determine how much work you need to put into advertising and providing food and drink. Your venue will have a policy on this, if you are at a pub, they will most likely provide food and drink, so you can either charge an entrance fee, or charge vendors to sell their wares. If you are at a community hall, you can do this on your own and either subcontract to somebody else to provide these (and you either charge them or they give you a percentage of their takings). Then all you have to do is advertise your event with posters and have a great time.
